Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image titled "Stencil" by the artist is a rectangular black and white artwork. The artwork features a black border around a white background with a repeating pattern. The pattern consists of numerous thin, wavy black lines of varying lengths that are irregularly spaced and oriented vertically. Interspersed among these lines are small, black flowers or starbursts with multiple pointed petals. The flowers have a somewhat uniform appearance and are scattered across the white background. The overall design gives a sense of texture and visual rhythm due to the repetition of lines and floral motifs. The artwork's simplicity and use of a limited color palette emphasize its graphic and stencil-like quality.
